Social profiles
From this section, you define the associated URLs for the social profiles using fields. However, the behavior of these fields varies based on the WiseStamp plan.
For WiseStamp Free or Pro, directly input the associated URL into each field.
For WiseStamp for Teams, you are designing a signature template for a group or team. This WiseStamp plan allows you to link these fields to your employee and company data through integration or other available options. Use variables to link social profile fields to your employee and company data. These fields can then be used with all signatures. Click on each field to set the relevant variable.
Employee variable values automatically change per employee, while Company variable values remain constant across all signatures.
As the default, several social profiles are in the list. However, social profiles are only displayed in the signature and in the preview after they have been defined using fields.
